Gourmia SoftSnap debuted at The Inspired Home Show 2024 and it's a first-of-its-kind innovation for making ice cream at home that eliminates the need to pre-freeze a bowl or add salt or ice. This all-in-one, home, soft-serve ice cream maker with a built-in cooling system simplifies the task of making homemade soft-serve ice cream into a two-step process. After adding their ingredients, ice cream lovers need only press a button and let SoftSnap do the rest.
"Consumers everywhere love soft-serve ice cream, and until now, automatic soft-serve ice cream makers were built for commercial use," says Heshy Biegeleisen, Gourmia founder.
Mirroring the ice cream shop experience, SoftSnap dispenses ice cream with the pull of a handle, offering a mess-free way to get soft-serve—or sorbet, yogurt and other desserts—straight into a cone or cup.
